I can’t believe the day is finally here, when I get to share this wedding!  I’ve probably watched it 25 times since I finished it because Kristina and Nick’s wedding was not just full of wonderful details and elegance, but laughs and tears that really showed just how much they care for each other, and how their friends and family care for them.

Now you’ve probably seen many of these details in their photo blog, but it took the skill of both Kristina and Nick working with the Katie O’ Events team to bring this all together in a beautiful and unique way. They knocked it out of the park! Katie has a utility belt that would make Batman jealous, that is, if Batman would like to sparkle… But she is always 100% prepared for anything. They way they designed the wedding really characterized their personalities and created the perfect atmosphere that embodied what this day was all about; their complete infectious love for each other!

There is a special ending to this one just as the credits roll, and I want to thank DJ Jeffery Scott for giving me great audio, not just at this wedding, but all year long. Amazing professionalism and F.U.N. fun!

I’m just so excited to share this video with Brea+Patrick, and being so close to Christmas, it makes it extra special for us. There were so many emotions captured it’s hard to put into words just how cool it was to be apart of this wedding. Both Brea and Pat have been awesome to work with throughout the process and we knew we had to come bringing our A game and ready to kick some butt :)
An all-star team of professionals always makes that easier as well!

Thank you both for having us at your wedding, and for being so great to work with.

I’m very excited to show you a crazy in love couple, Kristina+Nick, who had an amazing November day at their Canfield Casino wedding.

You may remember Kristina+Nick from their VT inspired engagement shoot.

I  love to see some flowers from one of my favorites: Fleurtacious Designs.  Day of Coordination, Katie O’ Events, made the day run smooth!

Here is a layout design at the Canfield Casino weddings for all you future brides. Very unique!

They wanted their ceremony to be as personal as possible.  The seating for the ceremony was arranged in a circle (a great recommendation by Kris Ann), which made the small ceremony even more intimate.

Told you, really funny guy!

They used elements about themselves including using wine corks they had saved over the years as a unity ceremony, instead of sand or stones. Here guests are giving a wish to the couple on the wine corks, holding them close to their hearts.

Saratoga Springs has it covered when it comes to hosting a wedding. From the Victorian architecture to the stamp of horse racing, the city makes every shot beautiful and unique. It was amazing to have a stunning ceremony and walk from the Bethesda Episcopal Church to Congress Park in the middle of Saratoga.
Nestled in the center of the park sits the beautiful Canfield Casino. Erika and Juan rocked the night away with family and friends to the music of Joey Thomas Big Band and celebrated just as they had in the 1870′s. Time it seems, changes when you are surrounded by the history and enchantment that is Saratoga.
A beautiful bride, a tall handsome man and Saratoga. It was a perfect wedding.

And speaking of contest winners…

For those of you that came by the Glen Sanders Wedding Show back in January, you would have seen yours truly handing out scratch-off cards for a contest we were holding to give away a free wedding video package.  Many future brides scratched, and many future brides didn’t win (sadly), but soon we were approached by a wonderful couple that had been visiting the show with their daughter.  The kicker is that their daughter hadn’t arrived yet, so I gave a card to Mom to scratch off in her behalf and BAM!  She hit the grand prize!  It gets better.  When the daughter arrived we played it off like nothing had happened and gave her a ticket to scratch (knowing that more than likely it wouldn’t be one of the other winning tickets).  As expected, she didn’t win.  We held out for a minute or two, apologetic that she didn’t get the winning ticket. But our excitement got the best of us and we broke the good news that her Mother DID win!  I don’t think I’ve ever seen someone in so much shock!  I believe her exact words were, “I’ve never won anything in my life!”

What a fabulous day.  And even better was the fact that they’re such a great couple, too.

So fast forward to the big wedding day — and Clark+Walker Studio is on the scene givin’ it their all (as we always do!).
